FIRE RETARDANT SYSTEMS AND SOLUTIONS
Marketed by :
INTRODUCTION
•
We at Multi kilfire believe strongly in the adage “PREVENTION IS BETTER
THAN CURE”. Active Fire Systems which include hydrants, sprinklers &
smoke detectors, come into play only after the fire breaks out; whereas
Passive Systems help in preventing and retarding fires. While Passive
systems cannot be considered to be an alternative to Active systems, they
definitely rationalize the need for extensive deployment of Active Systems.
A marriage between both types of systems is not only physically safer but
also more cost effective.

FIRE RETARDANT COATING FOR
ELECTRICAL CABLES – KF600
EFFECTIVENESS OF FIRE RETARDANT
COATING
Functions by limiting the oxygen drawn from the atmosphere,
thereby inhibiting the combustion and heat build-up process in the
immediate vicinity of the cable insulation.
The coating converts the bunch of cables into one coated cable
and compartmentalizes an uncoated fire zone from the coated
non – fire zone.
Dissipates the heat generated by the fire and thereby prevents heat
conduction.

DESCRIPTION
THESE ARE MORTAR-TYPE FIRE BARRIERS, WITH A THREE
HOUR FIRE RATING, WHICH ARE INSTALLED IN OPENINGS
(FLOOR / WALL) WHERE CABLES / CABLE TRAYS PASS FROM
ONE ROOM TO THE OTHER OR FOR SEALING OPENINGS UNDER
ELECTRIC SWITCH GEAR, LIKE HT AND LT CONTROL PANELS.
THEY PREVENT FIRE FROM SPREADING FROM ONE ROOM TO
THE OTHER.
TECHNICAL DATA
The system has been successfully tested at the only
approved CSIR Laboratory for such a product
at CBRI, Rourkee. The parameters tested for is
highlighted hereunder:
a. Impact Test
b. Accelerated Ageing.
c. Water Absorption.
d. Vibration Test.
e. Fire Resistance Evaluation.
f. Hose Stream evaluation.
g. F – Rating
h. T – Rating.
Single Component non – combustible system.
Designed for 3 (three) hour fire rating.
Segregates / compartmentalizes fire and non –
fire zones.
Compatible with all types of cable jacketing
material.
No effect due to vibration, impact and
radiation.
Mechanically strong and can bear drop loads.
Retrofitting very easy without special tools.
Conforms to Indian and International
standards.
No imported components. Indigenously
developed.
Maintenance free.
Asbestos free.
Expected life – will last the life of the cable.
FIRE TEST AT CBRI ROURKEE
• Electrical cables are extensively used in all
major industries. These are mostly run
through underground cable tunnels, trenches,
overhead cable trays and ducts. Any fire
incidence in the vicinity of these may result in
spread of fire along the cable trays as modern
production facilities demand long run of
power and control cables all over the Plant
area.
FIRE TEST AT CBRI ROURKEE
• The fire safety can be enhanced by providing
Fire Stop Barriers at different intervals and by
sealing the openings.
• The complete cable Barrier should be
thoroughly evaluated before its installation for
providing compartmentation
FIRE TEST AT CBRI ROURKEE
• We sponsored the Project to evaluate the
performance of our cable Fire Barrier KF-604 with
respect to furnace heating conditions and other
appropriate procedures specified in relevant
Standards.
• The Fire Research Laboratory at Rourkee
approved by CSIR Laboratory has established
standard facilities conforming to various National
and International Standards for evaluating Fire
Resistance of different type of systems.
